Aug 14 2010 Royal Canadian Yacht Club Hosts Toronto Easter Seals Regatta
Toronto
Easter Seals Regatta 2010
‘Beauty & The Beach Bash’
Hosted by the Royal Canadian Yacht Club
Sunday, August 29, 2010
This year´s regatta, themed Beauty & The Beach Bash, welcomes both sailboats and powerboats to sail a course around the
Toronto
Harbour
and experience a fun day on the water. The Easter Seals Sailpast will kick off the activity stations so that participating boats will have an equal chance to experience some friendly competition for prizes.
For one beautiful summer day each year, the Easter Seals Regatta plays host to racers, cruisers and participants. Each year over 70 Easter Seals kids and their families are able to enjoy an exciting day on the water because of the generosity of many skippers in the Children's Cruising Fleet.
With the vibrant and varied spinnaker of each boat the Easter Seals Regatta at the Royal Canadian Yacht Club will turn the Toronto Harbour into a "sea of colour", making it not only a "must" for participation, but also providing a wonderful show for the many spectators at Harbourfront.
Following the regatta, join us for the Post-Regatta Party on
Snug
Island
featuring a delicious BBQ, live music, silent auction, raffle and plenty of family-fun activities.
All participating boats must raise a minimum of $250.00 in donations for Easter Seals kids. Tax receipts are provided for all donations over $20.00.
Children's Cruisers
Many families of kids with physical disabilities can only dream of the chance to spend the day on the water sailing or boating. Host an Easter Seals family on your boat and provide this chance. A minimum of $250.00 in donations is required to participate as a Children's Cruiser.
Corporate Sponsor Perk!
Give your corporate sponsors some visibility. Boats with a $500 corporate donation receive two display banners and 2 tickets to attend the Post Regatta Party.
Completed registration forms must be returned to Easter Seals Ontario by Friday, August 6th, 2010.
